At Willesden, on February 5 and 12, Network Rail engineers will carry out vital track improvements to ensure more reliable and punctual train services for customers in the future

Martin Frobisher, managing director for Network Rail’s west coast route, said: “The purpose of our must-do work by our orange army engineers is to improve railway services for customers both now and in future. We are determined to keep all passengers moving on the West Coast main line throughout these four Sundays. By planning your journey in advance and checking before you travel, we can make that happen.”
